title: "macOS Releases Going Forward"
|

|
||||||
|
We now have working macOS versions of dupeGuru built with both UI toolkits and supporting both
|
||||||
|
Intel and M1 chips. The latest downloads are as follows (see details below for more information):
|
||||||
|
- Qt Version [https://github.com/arsenetar/dupeguru/releases/download/4.1.1/dupeguru_macOS_Qt_4.1.1.zip](https://github.com/arsenetar/dupeguru/releases/download/4.1.1/dupeguru_macOS_Qt_4.1.1.zip)
|
||||||
|
- Cocoa Version [https://github.com/arsenetar/dupeguru/releases/download/4.1.1/dupeguru_macOS_Cocoa_4.1.1.dmg](https://github.com/arsenetar/dupeguru/releases/download/4.1.1/dupeguru_macOS_Cocoa_4.1.1.dmg)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## History
|
||||||
|
Awhile back we had detailed the state of issues with macOS versions in {% post_url 2021-03-09-macOS_Version_notes %}. We have now been able to package both Qt and Cocoa versions successfully for distribution.
|
||||||
|
These versions are also compatible with Intel and M1 chips. The Qt version had previously
|
||||||
|
been held up due to issues with the packaging tools. All the issues with packaging are now
|
||||||
|
resolved.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Going Forward
|
||||||
|
Of the two versions, the Cocoa version can be considered the legacy version, due to needing
|
||||||
|
to maintain a second UI layer. We are considering phasing out the Cocoa version in future
|
||||||
|
releases. The Cocoa UI is already a ways behind the Qt version and does not implement several
|
||||||
|
features. There is no real development support for the Cocoa UI aside from minor bug fixes.
|
||||||
|
As such we recommend users to start trying the Qt Version out and report any issues or missing
|
||||||
|
items versus the Cocoa version. The Cocoa UI will most likely not get any new features moving
|
||||||
|
forward at this time, however we will try to support the current functionality until it is phased
|
||||||
|
out.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If there is interest in contributing to the development of the Cocoa UI, and helping provide support
|
||||||
|
for it, then we can consider not phasing it out.
